Nothing But the Rain

Spare a moment, step inside my mind Walk through the village that I've left to die Proceed with caution, move between the air Don't stir the creature from beneath the stairs Sick of playing house and screaming into sheets I'm brought to ponder life beyond these dull suburban streets And through misfortune and coincidence A call to action, born from negligence You'll smell corruption on the avenue Just hang your eyes low as I used to do You'll spot the angels in the family cars Stick to the silence, it'll take you far Just along the way, an unassuming child Ascends a stage to greet them with that tried-and-tested smile And though he's finally where he wants to be The silent masses sing a haunting melody The lyrics loud, the meaning is unclear You've spun a symphony that no one's ever going to hear A flower left unloved can bloom the same But what's a life of feeling nothing but the rain? Quiet contemplation I must've left it burning far too long Reimbursing younger versions Of this person I no longer can be certain's In the mirror, it's much clearer How the guilt has only worsened Main event has left the stage again They've had to cancel and they're wondering where he went He'll spend a lifetime seeking remedy He'll close his eyes but he cannot escape the melody The lyrics loud, the meaning is unclear You've spun a symphony that no one's ever going to hear A flower left unloved can bloom the same But what's a life of feeling nothing but the rain? The lyrics loud, the meaning is unclear You've spun a symphony that no one's ever going to hear A flower left unloved can bloom the same But what's a life of feeling nothing but the rain?
